leak: pixel 9 won't have the ambitious chip upgrade we hoped for: see it now on @AndroidAuth (some cool details about the google/samsung relationship and chip development in general inside!) androidauthority.com/google-tensor-…
i really liked writing this one - I'd love to do more technical stuff like this in the future!
@Za_Raczke @AndroidAuth That's kind of a disappointment. I was really hoping for Google that they can get rid of Samsungs crappy Exynos base and switch to as of now greatly superior TSMC node.
@Za_Raczke @AndroidAuth Great article, personal Im ok with the Tensor chips like majority are, but let's hope the pixel 9 or 10 pros will get either get a 4th camera with 10x zoom or a periscope zoom camera that can go from 5 to 9 or 10 megapixel optical zoom? As well as the non Pro getting optical zoom
@Za_Raczke @AndroidAuth Apple will gain more people or users, simple as Bonjour
@Za_Raczke @AndroidAuth I kind of figured that the full custom chip would launch with the pixels. 10 or pixel X series. I'm going to get the eight pro it hold on to it till the 10 pro
@Za_Raczke @AndroidAuth Will the CPU be ARM based or will it adopt Google custom cloud CPU architecture?
@Za_Raczke @AndroidAuth That's the best explanation of the Google/Samsung partnership I've read so far. You so often read "rebranded exynos" because Samsung gives it an internal exynos name
@Za_Raczke @AndroidAuth Did I miss the pixel 8?😲😲
